For what it's worth, The actual mail list management, i.e. receiving and delivering posts, only involves Mailman core and your mailman suite config file is only for Postorius and HyperKitty and doesn't affect Mailman core.
Aaargghh! We should not be doing this to users. If we're going to have a "mailman suite" project, there should be a single file for configuration of *all* installed components, at least for "vanilla" installations. (It's bad enough that in many installations one has to configure the webserver three times, once in a front-end like Apache or nginx, once in a wsgi dispatcher like uWSGI, and once in Django.)
I understand that it may take a ton of work and backward incompatibility to implement this, or even make substantial progress, so (until I have time to do it myself) I'm not seriously suggesting it at this time.
It occurred to me that we could have a short comment at the top of every config file that lists all the config files and what they control, with one marked "(this file)". Or something. WDOT?
